DAN DiDIO JOINS THE KUBERT SCHOOL

The Kubert School is proud to announce that starting on October 1st legendary DC publisher Dan DiDio will join the ranks of its talented faculty. “As a long time fan and supporter of the Kubert School, I’m excited to be involved and contributing to their online program,“ says DiDio.

DiDio will be teaching a new online course called “From Concept to Sale”. In the course, he will show you how to develop and present your ideas for a character, book, or series, to publishers or other media outlets. During these weekly sessions, you will discuss and work towards constructing a series bible and a story concept pitch that will generate opportunities in a crowded marketplace.

“We are overjoyed to welcome Dan into our online studies faculty. He is someone who needs no introduction and who has been an integral part of the comics industry for years. The knowledge and passion that he brings to a project is second to none.” says Anthony Marques, President of The Kubert School.

“From Concept to Sale” is only one new online course that will be coming Oct. 1. There will also be “Storyboards” taught by animation director, Abe Audish (Cartoon Network/Nickelodeon); “Basic Drawing” taught by artist Emma Kubert (Ink Blot from Image Comics); “Basic Drawing II” taught by David Williams (Batman The Animated Series, X-Force) and “Narrative Art” taught by comic book creator Moritat (All Star Western, The Spirit); with additional new classes to be announced.

They will join returning instructors such as Fernando Ruiz, Amy Chu, and Sergio Carriello just to name a few from The Kubert School’s incredible list of instructors.

The Kubert School Online Studies fall courses will be available for registration starting Tuesday, September 22nd.

As Publisher, DiDio directed and oversaw DC Entertainment’s (DCE) publishing business under its key three imprints – DC, Vertigo, and MAD – in both print and digital formats. He worked alongside DCE’s editorial, art & design, production, business development, and sales groups. He would also work in concert with DCE’s Creative Affairs and Franchise Management teams to ensure that publishing continued to create content and help drive the media businesses that use comics as their source of inspiration.
